Hi,
Yes, there is a chance of pregnancy since you have stopped the pills few weeks before intercourse. I suggest you to take a pregnancy test by 10 days of missed period or after 2 weeks of sexual intercourse, in order to get a reliable test result. Blood test can also be taken which is more sensitive than urine test.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
